Former Minister T Harish Rao criticised the Congress government for failing to implement the crop insurance scheme for four consecutive seasons. He accused it of betraying farmers and ignoring key issues like urea supply, loan waivers and input subsidies.
Are you celebrating for successfully misleading farmers? Not a single promise from the Warangal Rythu Declaration has been fulfilled," he said. Instead, he stated that 563 farmers had lost their lives in the past year due to the Congress government's inept policies.
The MPs and MLAs of the BJP held a 24-hour protest to force the State government to fulfil the promises made to the farming community, especially the crop loan waiver scheme, at the Dharna Chowk, Indira Park on Monday.
